Abstract This R13 meetings grant application seeks support for five yearly three-day stand alone conferences to be held at selected locations beginning in the fall of 2009. This proposal reflects a collaborative initiative between Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center and the National Hispanic Science Network on Drug Abuse (NHSN), based at the University of Miami. The annual scientific conferences help to accomplish the NHSN mission of fostering both interdisciplinary and translational research, by promoting dialogue between biologic, social, behavioral, and cultural scientists and disseminating findings back to the field. Previous conferences, supported through a NIDA-funded contract, have been an effective platform for developing the aims of the NHSN, with particular emphasis on mentoring and training Hispanic graduate students and early career scientists. The aims of the conferences will be: A) to advance science in the area of drug abuse research and its co-morbid conditions, particularly as it impacts on the Hispanic population. It will promote bidirectional translational research ranging from bench to community and a trans-disciplinary cross-fertilization of ideas among scientists from all fields of drug abuse helping to establish future research priorities. B) To foster the development of Hispanic researchers, with emphasis in areas related to drug abuse research by facilitating the development of integrated and continuous collaborative and mentoring networks. Funding is requested to support participation for 50 trainees/early career scientists and 20 research scientists presenting in the scientific panels. An average of 150 participants, representing the field from the national and international scientific communities, are expected at each yearly conference, including members of the global research community whose interests encompass a multifaceted approach to understanding the factors underlying health disparities as they pertain to drug use and abuse ranging from epidemiology to environmental health, psychology, sociology, health policy, neuroscience and other biomedical sciences, and epigenetics. The first conference proposed "Integrating Population, Laboratory, and Clinical Sciences in Minority Health" will be hosted by the University of Miami, from December 1-3, 2009. The format of the conference aims to provide ample opportunity for discussion, networking, and collaboration discussions as well as development of new ideas related to training and mentoring of the next generation of researchers in the field of drug abuse. The themes, scientific content, and program for each conference will be developed by a Scientific Conference committee comprised of NHSN members, NIH officials, and federal liaisons. The themes will be directly related to NIDA's strategic plan and the NIH blueprint, addressing timely topics and developing challenges in the field.

摘要 这一R13会议补助金申请寻求支持五个每年为期三天的独立会议将于2009年秋季开始在选定的地点举行。该提案反映了路易斯安那州立大学健康科学中心和位于迈阿密大学的国家西班牙裔药物滥用科学网络（NHSN）之间的合作倡议。年度科学会议有助于完成NHSN的使命，促进跨学科和转化研究，通过促进生物，社会，行为和文化科学家之间的对话，并将发现传播回该领域。以前的会议，通过NIDA资助的合同支持，一直是发展NHSN的目标，特别强调指导和培训西班牙裔研究生和早期职业科学家的有效平台。 会议的目的将是：A）推进药物滥用研究及其并发症领域的科学，特别是因为它对西班牙裔人口的影响。它将促进从实验室到社区的双向转化研究，并促进药物滥用所有领域科学家之间的跨学科思想交流，帮助确定未来的研究优先事项。B）促进西班牙裔研究人员的发展，重点是通过促进发展综合和持续的合作和指导网络，在与药物滥用研究有关的领域。要求提供资金，以支持50名受训人员/早期职业科学家和20名研究科学家参加科学小组。预计每年的会议平均将有150名与会者，代表国家和国际科学界的该领域，包括全球研究界的成员，他们的兴趣包括采取多方面的办法来了解与药物使用和滥用有关的健康差异的根本因素，从流行病学到环境健康、心理学、社会学、卫生政策、神经科学和其他生物医学科学以及表观遗传学。 第一次会议提出“人口，实验室和临床科学在少数民族健康”将主办的迈阿密大学，从2009年12月1日至3日。会议的形式旨在提供充分的机会进行讨论、联网和协作讨论，并提出与药物滥用领域下一代研究人员的培训和指导有关的新想法。每次会议的主题、科学内容和计划将由科学会议委员会制定，该委员会由NHSN成员、NIH官员和联邦联络员组成。这些主题将与NIDA的战略计划和NIH蓝图直接相关，及时解决该领域的主题和发展挑战。
